Episode 1

Cambodia & Vietnam

58 mins

English chef Rick Stein embarks on his culinary tour of the Far East in Cambodia. It has an extremely rich and varied cuisine as a result of 1500 years of foreign domination, ending with the French domination, symbolized by baguette bakeries, but the strongest influence, like in most of Asia, remains Chinese. Like their Vietnamese neighbors, next on Rick's route, Cambodians mainly love seafood with rice and spices, but fresh and in pastes or curry, specialties including a pepper.
